Heritage Cafe

I was at the Heritage Café with my wife and another couple on Wed 9 August 2017. We arrived during a busy lunch period but our table was waiting for us when we arrived. Let me say first off, the food was good and that is the only reason I could stretch this to two stars. We walked in and no one acknowledged us. We sat at the table and eventually we were met by our waitress who took our orders for drinks and food. Our drinks arrived in good time BUT we waited over an hour for our food. I am not exaggerating, in fact it was an hour and four minutes. When the food began to arrive, my brother in law received his hot meal however he waited well over five minutes for cutlery to arrive. The meals arrived at different times (my brother in law received his food ten minutes before my food arrived) and not once did we receive an apology from our waitress for the delay. Other patrons experienced the same terrible service. When I went to the counter to pay the bill the manager offered an apology for the slow service after I told her how long we waited. Her explanation was that we arrived during the peak lunch period. The food was good, the setting is lovely however how can a restaurant think waiting an hour for basic food from a limited menu is acceptable.

Great service! The menu is small but has something for everyone and you get great value for the price. We joked that the turkey sandwich had a full turkey on it, very filling. Excellent homemade, NL food. A delicious assortment of desserts too.

By far the best home cooked traditional Newfoundland food and the best service! The atmosphere is cozy inside with rustic charm and there's room out on the deck to enjoy the outdoor panaramic view of the harbour and boats while you eat or sip coffee as well! A definate worth the visit" for anyone of any age!"

Perfect place to grab some traditional Newfoundland food. Make sure that you check out the beans, bologna, toutons and fish cakes.Leave a bit of time to walk around the area. Lots of beautiful scenery and photo ops.Parking is free.

Highly recommend. Blueberry Cobbler DELICIOUS. Huge delicious turkey salad sandwich. Cozy atmosphere, great staff, beautiful views

Great seaside cafe with cosy interior and bright deck overlooking the water for sunny days. We’ll-priced menu with sandwiches, soups, daily specials like hot turkey dinner, vegetarian and gluten free options, and a variety of deserts. Service was very friendly. Free wifi. Looking forward to coming back!

Fantastic local cooking especially the fish cakes, what a treat. Definitely worth making a trip to Burin. The food is fabulous and plentiful, only surpassed by the super friendly staff and efficient service. A step onto the deck to see an ocean view that is superb. Highly recommended.

The pea soup and dough boys were truly awesome. The flakie with fresh whipped cream and pastry that melted in your mouth was amazing. Not enough good can be said .

Enjoyed some authentic home cooking in this beautiful restaurant by the sea. Friendly service and very reasonable prices. Highly recommend.

Our second time here and what a treat. Definitely worth making it part of an excursions to Burin, or even a destination. The food is fabulous and plentiful, only surpassed by the super friendly staff. All this in a funky, fun and cozy setting with awesome views. Highly recommended.
